Computational Molecular Science and Engineering Plenary Session


Description:
This session seeks submissions in the broad area of Computational Molecular Science and Engineering. The session will feature a invited presentation by the CoMSEF Early Career award winner and presentations chosen by the CoMSEF executive committee from the contributed abstracts. The session will be held as an area "plenary" without concurrent CoMSEF sessions. As such, the papers presented in this session are expected to be of broad appeal to the CoMSEF community and of exceptional quality.
